Chapter 242: This Time It's Real
At dusk.
Li Er and the others were by the lake in Chen Chu's villa, drinking wine while enjoying the beautiful scenery around it.
Everyone likes Chen Chu's villa quite much.
This kind of environment where people and nature are one, whether they live or travel, gives people a sense of novelty.
"I've never seen such a nice home."
"Chen Chu is simply a ghost, if it weren't for Master Yuan Tiangang to prove that he is the descendant of the Daomen, I would have doubted whether he was a disciple of the Mo family, many of the designs in this mansion can be called exquisite, only the legendary children of the Mo family can design them."
"Originally, I thought that Chen Chu was a kung fu master, with the courage of ten thousand people, but later, he actually knew all kinds of inventions, just when I thought he was a powerful craftsman, he was amazing in poetry, knowledgeable, even Confucius was full of praise for him, just when I thought he was a Confucian person, he suddenly announced that he was a Taoist descendant, alas, like this kind of person, it is really powerful......"
When everyone didn't drink, their brains were quite clear, and they kept silent about Chen Chuna, and they would never say a word more.
But now that I drank some wine, my head was a little dizzy, so I praised Chen Chulai one after another.
Li Er glanced at everyone and did not speak.
He whispered to himself: "No, there are so many people praising Chen Chu, this is by no means a good sign." ”
Empress Eldest Sun was puzzled and asked, "Second brother, the ministers praise Chen Chu, this is a good thing, why is the second brother worried?" ”
Li Er shook his head: "Guanyin, you don't know, Chen Chu is young, he is already proud of himself and stubborn, if he knows, the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty are praising him, he still doesn't his tail to the sky, he is still young, and he has to grow up slowly, don't let him be arrogant...... Besides, the ancients had clouds, and the wood show must be destroyed by the forest wind, and it is not necessary to be higher than the people, Chen Chu is too dazzling, but it is not a good thing......"
Empress Eldest Sun suddenly realized.
It turned out that the second brother had been thinking about Chen Chu all along, and he was protecting Chen Chu.
She looked in the direction of Peach Blossom Island and said, "I'm afraid that Chen Chu doesn't understand the second brother's hard work, but thinks that the second brother is forcing him." ”
Li Er picked up the teacup and took a sip lightly, revealing a thoughtful look.
The crowd continued to drink.
At dusk.
A small boat left from Peach Blossom Island and came to the shore of the lake.
Chen Chu and the other five masters of Peach Blossom Island woke up a lot, and as soon as they landed on the shore, they saw Li Er and Empress Changsun, as well as a minister.
The wine of the five people suddenly woke up most of them.
One by one, they hurried over.
Chen Chu was surprised: "Father? ”
"See Your Majesty, see the Empress!"
Cheng Yanjin and others said.
Li Er stared at the five people, and said with a sneer: "In ancient times, Cao Mengde and Liu Xuande cooked wine and talked about heroes, and now there are a few Aiqing Taohua Island heroes, a few Aiqing, you are so Yaxing, East Evil, West Poison, Southern Emperor, Northern Beggar, and one Zhongshen, you ...... is old, and he is messing around with Chen Chu. ”
Cheng Biting Jin smiled and said: "Your Majesty is right, we are all nonsense, don't count, don't count, Chen Chu also said, we are just talking about heroes on Peach Blossom Island, leaving Peach Blossom Island, my old Cheng is still His Majesty's pawn, say one thing or ......another."
Li Jing and the others hurriedly nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty, we are all drunk and playful, so we can't take it seriously." ”
Among them, the most apprehensive one is Cheng Biting Jin.
The nicknames of the other few are reasonable, but he is the Southern Emperor.
There is an emperor in it!
Now that I am sober and think about it carefully, the cold sweat has come down.
Dare to claim the emperor in front of His Majesty Li Er, isn't this looking for death?
Everyone thought that what followed was Li Er's angry attack, and it must have been a storm.
Who knows, Li Er actually waved his hand and said lightly: "Since this is the case, don't mess around anymore in the future, okay, don't mention it again at this time." ”
Finished?
That's it!
Li Er didn't even reprimand him.
Chen Chu was a little surprised.
It seems that His Majesty Li Er is worthy of being one of the very few emperors in history who does not kill meritorious heroes.
With this mind, it is not comparable to ordinary emperors.
Seeing this, Chen Chu hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Father, on that day, you decreed that I should build a mansion, and on the day the mansion is completed, you will let the Ministry of Rites start preparing for my marriage with the eldest princess, today, the mansion has been built, you see, is it ......"
He looked at Li Er with a smile.
Li Er: "......"
He did agree to Chen Chu at the beginning, and there was also an edict from the imperial court.
This cannot be denied.
But he didn't expect Chen Chu to finish building this mansion so quickly.
Even if you build an ordinary mansion, I'm afraid it will take a year or two.
But Chen Chu is good, and it will be completed in half a year.
Now Li Er is a little difficult to ride a tiger, and it feels like lifting a stone to shoot himself in the foot.
He looked at the ministers around him.
Wang Jue hurriedly turned his head over.
Chen Shuda looked down at his boots.
Gao Shilian looked up at the birds in the sky.
The ministers are out of the way.
The problem is to return to Li Er.
He couldn't make up his mind for a moment.
But I heard Chen Chu say: "Father, three years and three years, and in another three years, I will be old......"
Li Er rolled his eyes.
You kid, you're only in your early twenties, how can you be old.
But he couldn't fool Chen Chu anymore.
After all, there are too many flickerings, and I'm a little embarrassed.
At this time, the eldest grandson queen next to her pulled Li Er's sleeve, attached it to Li Er's ear, and whispered: "Second brother, Chen Chu is right, time has dragged on and on, but Lizhi has already reached the age of talking about marriage, besides, the marriage between Chen Chu and Lizhen is already known to the world, and it is not a way to drag it like this......"
Li Er thought about it, took a deep breath, raised his hand, slowly lowered it, and said, "Okay, I promise you...... After returning to the palace, let the Ministry of Rites start preparing for your marriage with Lizhi. ”
Chen Chu's eyes lit up, but he was still a little unconvinced.
As an emperor, Li Er has always kept his promises to the people of the world and the ministers of the court.
Only for Chen Chu, it is not the first time that he has regretted it.
Chen Chu asked incredulously, "Father, this time it's true, right?" ”
Li Er's beard trembled with anger: "How can this be reasonable, you have no jokes." ”
Chen Chu nodded: "Oh, then this time it's true, thank you father for your success." ”
After taking care of this matter, a big stone in Chen Chu's heart finally landed.
He said to everyone: "Father, my lords, it's so boring to just drink, today, it is the day when the Nanshan Mansion is built, since everyone has arrived, how can I, Chen Chu, not greet you...... Come, hurry up and get the cooks ready, and tonight, I'm going to have a bonfire in my mansion......"
Bonfires?
Everyone was stunned.
I've never heard of anything like this.
But it sounds like a lot of fun.
And it was Chen Chu who handled it personally, so it must not be simple.
The ministers turned around one after another and commanded the subordinates behind them:
"Go and inform Childe and let him come quickly!"
"Go tell Master Zhang that there is delicious food in Nanshan Mansion."
"Send a carriage to bring Madame here."
Everyone was anxious to call all their relatives and friends, and they were ready to eat Chen Chu's meal.
Chen Chu didn't care about this.
